where can I learn sqeak?

I want to learn how to use squeak!, the thing where you can make your own blocks and stuff like that. Will someone please tell me where I can learn how to use it?

PS: I don't even know how to open it, and I barely know what it is.

PSS: if you don't think I can handle it, I'm probably the first 10 year old who knows, C++, HTML, Javascript, Actionscript, and Flash. Does that change your mind?

Re: where can I learn sqeak?

Hey, midnightleopard,

I'm pretty sure you will be able to learn the programming language Smalltalk (as implemented in Squeak). In fact, there's an excellent tutorial for starters written by Scratch's very own John Maloney here:

    http://static.squeak.org/tutorials/BankAccount.html

Also, if you look at the squeak.org website, there are a lot of links to other tutorials and free books about Smalltalk and Squeak.

If you've got a specific question about how Scratch "works" I might also be able to help...
